the best reasonably priced, rwd sports car available. japanese reliability. has very clean lines, a look that should age well. it's also a bit roomier than others, at least legroom.

Because it is a Honda with VTEC, not VTECH.

first draw was the high redline and amazing power drawn out of a 2.0L engine.

when i actually got the car, i fell in love with the handling and the way it looks just sitting there. can't forget the scream of that engine as it approaches 9000 RPM, either.

the car, overall, is a nice package, indeed.
sure, i'm anal about what i feel is a lack of respect from some car enthusiasts focusing on what our car doesn't do rather than what it does do.
but, when i really think back on it, i didn't want the car because it was the fastest in a straight line or what not.
for it's price and what it gives a driver, it has no real equal.

it's mine, and i really wouldn't have it any other way.
i really love my car. =]

Always loved Honda's. This car still gets looks and it's an 8 yr old design..IMO timeless and will never get old. While not that fast it is so much fun to drive, and won't leave you stranded out there, one of the best cars on the road.
